Photographer's Note

This is the view from the pier at Wrightsville Beach, NC at sunset. One of the problems with taking photos of the Atlantic Ocean at sunset, is the fact that the coast faces _east_. Nevertheless, the vast sense of infinity lying just beyond the horizon is still there, even if the brillant color of the sunset was behind me (to the west).

Hi Lorna, you've done really well with the colours and lines here and I note what you say about the difficulty of the coast facing East. Only a small point but there's a black spot on the left of the shot (a bird or dust on sensor?) that is distracting. A lovely shot nevertheless. Regards from Lisa in Australia
